Have you tested your water?
No
If I did not test my water...
  1. ...I recognize that I will likely be asked to do a test, and that water tests are critical for solving freshwater health problems.
Do you do water changes?
No
If I do not change my water...
  1. ...I recognize that I will likely be recommended to do a water change, and water changes are critical for preventing future freshwater health problems.
Hey, just came up with a question because of a post in fb ...Are there any remedy for swim bladder disease of red tailed catfish..lets share the kowledge and yoir experience guys...?❤
 
Depends on the underlying cause. Most of the time it’s a guess. What’s treatable is bacterial, impaction and parasitic. So it’s usually a antibiotic, Epsom salt and prazipro/anti-helthmic. What’s not treatable is if it’s genetic issue. Resulting in deformities of the gut or swim bladder.
